RIP John, you were a real inspiration to a number of us on the team, a gentleman and a scholar. x

A productive morning demonstrating the versatility of combining Power Automate Flows with Microsoft Forms to make people's lives easier with @sja_CMevents #office365 #automation #worksmart #mysjaday ^FR

Lots of shiny new #digital icom_uk equipment to support our wonderful St John Ambulance England volunteers in their lifesaving work! Lots of it thanks to the amazing generosity of donors donating to unit/area fundraising campaigns! #somuchprogrammingtodo #eventcomms #northnumber1

The things you find when clearing out old storerooms... Anybody like to guess the age? 😁

Making SJA North East & North West CRU 's lives a little easier, with the donation of some surplus racking! #mysjaday #oneteam

As per usual I spent the entire ITV Racing ITV virtual Grand National trying to spot our St John Ambulance England St John Ambulance Merseyside first aiders on the fences. Looks like that may have been a step too far for the brill CGI teams! No matter, we’ll be back! #VirtualGrandNational #mysjaday

Life slowly returning to normal, as my lounge is once again taken over by new icom_uk stock for SJA North Communications

To all control room staff you are all STARS but an especial thanks from me to all the St John Ambulance England #StJohnPeople who have run the coordination cells over the last 6 months.

Merry Christmas to all our followers! ^MA

We're out supporting #GNR40 with the brand new Control Unit looking after the Event Village after the finish line; and also having a presence in the Not North East Ambulance Service Emergency Operations Centre to help with joint working. Good luck all runners! ^MA @NationalSJAEPD [email protected]

#AskMe about our team that are at Manchester Pride this weekend supporting over 100 volunteers. Our fleet of digital icom_uk handsets are getting great feedback for their clear audio #MySJADay #ManchesterPride

Within St John Ambulance England, we have a variety of kit from different manufacturers - assets that have been acquired over many years. Our team have been working on improving interoperability and this weekend have completed multiple successful tests #MySJADay #AskMe

Amazing work by Josh and the wider team to bring together medical provision for 5,000 runners at #ChesterMarathon. If you’re interested in becoming an event controller, we would love to hear from you - #AskMe! Drop us a DM and we’ll point you in the right direction.

It’s great to be visiting Leadership Team Meetings and Unit Manager Forums across the North West to share what we’ve been doing recently, and what this year will entail for Operational Communications!

Events to celebrate the #Coronation are taking place across the country. Our team from the North West are supporting events locally and in the capital this weekend!
